Fenerbahce has shown good performance against Sturm Graz.
Fenerbahce has won an away game during Europa League 3rd qualifying round 1st leg game against Sturm Graz with help of the Roman Neustadner goal at the game where scoreline has been all set during 1st 35 minutes.
Even through Fenerbahce has shown pretty poor performance during friendly games without winning any of them it has shown top performance during Europa League game against Sturm Graz with 2:1 scoreline. As Fenerbahce head coach Aykut Kocaman, has stated following the game this scoreline might not be enough for the team at the end of the day but it was important to show top football. Taking account that it has conceded goal as early as 10th minute it was pretty impressive to turn scoreline in next 25 minutes. Despite of not great start to the game it has shown great response. It also needs to be stated that Fenerbahce has also shown great defensive football during 2nd half as Sturm Graz has been going forward but in overall it was well-deserved win by Fenerbahce.
Sturm Graz meanwhile has shown pretty good performance against Fenerbahce and has shown indeed that it was ready for today's game with showing fast-paced football especially 2nd half. Even through Fenerbahce has upper hand, Sturm is still inside the game.
Fenerbahce has got an important win at away game and has shown good collective football and with slight improvement at 2nd half could lead them for play-off round at the competition.
Basaksehirspor has shown great comeback against Club Brugge.
Basaksehirspor has shown a great spirit with its comeback from 2:0 scoreline after dissapointing 1st half performance against Belgian club Club Brugge during Champions League 3rd qualifying round 1st leg game and has ended away game with 3:3 scoreline.
Basaksehirspor has conceded 2 pretty simple goals from Club Brugge at the 1st of the 16th minutes of the game and hence providing a worry that it might lose to Belgian side with the scoreline with which it will not be able to return from during 2nd leg game. However, and with the great response from Mossoro during 2nd half it did manage to show great comeback and even get into ahead of the game with 3:2 scoreline for 4 minutes. Basaksehirspor has shown right attitude which it would need at least for this draw to get to the play-off round of the competition. It needless to state that it does have great advantage with 3 away goals and as long as it doesnt lose game until 3:3 scoreline it would be able to mark history at its own history and possibly in history of Champions League by being most modest club at play-off round of the competition. It shown great attitute against Club Brugge.
Despite of all this positive aspects, its still needs to provide full focus for 2nd leg game if it wants to get to the next stage of the competitions. Lets see if Basaksehirspor would be able to get an important win at its history during 2nd leg game.
Galatasaray will have meeting with Mircea Lucescu to appoint him in the role similar to sports director.
The aim for Galatasaray to appoint Mircea Lucescu as club's upper hand position at the team which would be providing full focus to the football section of the club, being similar to the sports director would be turning into reality as club has started its 1st negotiations regarding this idea.
During the meeting of the administrators regarding of the future of the head coach Igor Tudor among other issues has come to conclusion to keep Igor Tudor as club's head coach but appoint well-known football player at its club or coach into position of football director who would be responsible with everything going on with the team. It became clear that Galatasaray administrator Can Topsakal has travelled to Romania to meet with Mircea Lucescu to discuss about possible appontment of him to such an important role. Prior to flying to Romania, Topsakal has stated that this is 1st meeting to see how Lucescu would see towards this idea and later he would meet with CEO Dursun Ozbek. It does sound like nice idea from club and it would be appointment would be able to push both players and also have some control with head coach Igor Tudor.
It is quite natural for such respectful coach Mircea Lucescu who played an important role at the history of the club to be discussed during this meeting and time would show if he would yes to this offer.
